Durability 2 Had arthroscopic surgery on his ankle prior to 2008 spring practice.

Intangibles 3 "Scouts have some minor immaturity concerns. His father, Stafford Mays, was a defensive lineman at Washington in the late '70s and played in the NFL with the St. Louis Cardinals (1980-86) and Minnesota Vikings (1987-88).

there are a lot of "official times" - take your choice - they are all "official" - just love this time of year

actually, I think I heard there are actually 4 "official" times - some pick the best and some take the "average" - it's really not that big a deal, it's just a milion or 2 per year, maybe more ...

P A T I E N C E - Scot & Jay's goal here is to make this franchise better - it will take time they understand the need to change to primarily building through the draft - plus have some luck go their way

Taylor Mays is a good athlete that is true. Impressive Forty time as well.

I still think he is pure potential at this point. So far he has not shown much in terms of production. I would still take Eric Berry over him any day.
Also there are a number of good safeties coming out this year. So there is no need to reach with Mays.

OK then let's pick him at #4 for a FS, let's ignore the glaring hole at Oline. Heck why not run the swinging gate play everydown, this way we get to see more of our "good" Defense. We are good on the DB's, they can hold up for another year. WE NEED A LINE to protect lionel ritchie.

#21 (36) This IS and will always be the High watermark where all new DB's are measured.

Dude, you must be tired from all that JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS you're doing.

The point you overreacted to first was that we can get safeties thruout the draft. Now you're overreacting trying to imply that I said draft him at number 4. Slow down man and think a little.

We DO, in fact, need a FS. I don't think Moore's gonna do it from what I've seen. I think we've all seen enough of Landry at FS, and I still love the guy. Smoot at FS? I don't think so with the unproven young guys we have. I'm still not content with Westbrook back there. And Barnes hasn't shown much to solidify a nickel/starting position quite yet.

...any given Sunday....

RIP #21 Sean Taylor. You will be loved and adored by Redskins fans forever!!!!!

The National Anthem sucks.
What a useless piece of propagandist rhetoric that is.
